Some 20,000 Stryker Rejuvenate and ABG II Modular-Neck Hip Stems were recalled in July 2012, after postmarket surveillance indicated the metal hip components could fret and corrode at the modular-neck junction. Microscopic metal particles shed due to this action may accumulate in patients’ tissue and blood stream, leading to pain, swelling and adverse local tissue reactions.
